When buying an SSD you may want to keep an eye out for the estimated number of write hours. Some SSD drives don't have as much as others. I think the Samsung Pros have a higher write threshold than the regular ones. This may not matter as you may never reach those values but it might be something to keep in mind.

My new motherboard has the option for an m.2 stick but I went with a Samsung 850 500GB and Windows loads extremely fast. I usually don't turn the computer off but when I need to reboot it it takes about 5-10 seconds to get from me clicking reboot to me typing in my password to get back into Windows. Based on that, I don't know how much faster an m.2 would be.
